developing a login and registration page

Guest
Apr 24, 2007 Apr 24, 2007
Can someone tell me what would be a good way to create a login and registration page in DW 8. We will be using Microsoft SQL 2005 to store the user information. Could I use PHP with MS SQL 2005? Or would it be best if I use ASP.net with VB or C# through the DW 8 functions. The websites I have are all created in DW 8.

DW is not good to use with ASP.NET. If you want to use .NET I suggest Visual Studio or Visual Web Express.

ASP.NET support for introduced to provide a basic upgrade path to those
developing asp page previously. Unfortunately the approach that MM took of
using a custom class meant that it was very limiting, and so serious
developers have gone to the MS tools.

OK. I have been trying to set a database with MySQL and use DW to create my php pages but I am having trouble finding the shareware version of MySQL at their site. I have MySQL version 5.0.37 community edtion installed on my local computer but I dont know if this is a client or the actual server to create databases and tables in. Do you know where I can download the necessary files to do this? I have a virtual server over here I could use to set up the mySQL server. We will purchase the retail version once I get familar with php and mySQL. I have a good understanding fo RDMS and SQL code. The harderest thing for me is setting up a testing server in DW and connecting to the MySQL.

If you end database will be SQL2005 why are mucking around with MySQL. You
can download a copy of SQL Express for development purposes.

I highly commend and recommend David Powers' books. His books are well-documented, well-written in terms of concise and easy to follow.

Please note that you need to download the latest information through the Powers' site. Please have a look for further details and some additional infromation after his book was published. There are, in fact, some additional information to address some issues. So be aware and know that now in ahead of time. That is to say, that also probably will save some of your time in time fashion basis. :)

Good luck with your PHP project.

Cheers, Brian

I would recommend that you look at Visual Web Developer (Free from MS) and
use ASP.Net 2.0. All of the functionality to handle login, authentication,
lost passwords, user resets are available in the 2.0 framework as web
controls.
